RE: [Elecraft] calibrating 4 Mhz oscillator...

There's a built in 20 or 30 Hz error in the dial readout, Jean-François. It is not intentional; it is an engineering trade-off in the design to balance cost and performance. The K2 sets the frequencies of the VFO and BFO by adjusting a voltage on tuning diodes. Changing the voltage changes the

I am admittedly a novice at calibration, and the closest I was able to get was about 20Hz (.02) using the new procedure. This is better than I managed with the older procedure, though, and much easier. -- It takes brains. It's not like forward, where you can get away with scoring and not play
